    Here’s an extract from the Swiss Ephemeris documentation:

    6.1.12.

    Gauquelin sectors This is the “house” system used by the Gauquelin’s and their epigones and critics in statistical investigations in Astrology. Basically, it is identical with the Placidus house system, i.e. diurnal and nocturnal arcs of ecliptic points or planets are subdivided. There are a couple of differences, though.

    – Up to 36 “sectors” (or house cusps) are used instead of 12 houses.

    – The sectors are counted in clockwise direction.

    – There are so-called plus (+) and minus (–) zones. The plus zones are the sectors that turned out to be significant in statistical investigations, e.g.many top sportsmen turned out to have their Mars in a plus zone. The plus sectors are the sectors 36 – 3, 9 – 12, 19 – 21, 28 – 30.

    AC displays these + sectors in red,
